Donald Trump wins obscure election in Oregon after roll of the dice

Former President Donald Trump has once again been pronounced the winner, this time of the race for the third director seat on the board of a fire protection district in rural Oregon.

On May 16, the tiny Hubbard Rural Fire Protection District, an area encompassing seven square miles about a half-hour south of Portland, held an election for its three director positions. Two incumbents, Michelle Luna and Michael Willis, easily coasted to re-election, but there was no declared candidate for the third position, inviting a write-in campaign from voters.

As might be expected, votes were scarce in this off-year election. In a district of 5,000 residents, just 25 votes were cast, mostly for high-profile characters, such as Trump, Snoop Dogg, Mickey Mouse, and Smokey Bear. After all the votes were tallied, five candidates, including the former president, each had two write-in votes.
